    Wonderful experience! The vibe is unique and chill. There is a 20% house fee added to the check that is not the tip for the server. Great for a date.

    Helena Modern Rivera is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the incredible energy of the restaurant. The ambience was modern yet inviting, setting the perfect mood for a night out. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the chef’s skill and creativity. The drinks were equally impressive—craft cocktails that were both visually stunning and delicious. Our experience was elevated even further by our waitress, Christina. She was attentive, warm, and had fantastic recommendations that enhanced our meal. Her energy matched the lively atmosphere of the restaurant, making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our visit. Helena Modern Rivera is a must-visit for anyone seeking amazing food, drinks, and an unforgettable dining experience. We can’t wait to return!
